March 18th, 2012 Brad Marchetti

Cincinnati vs FSU Odds: Tonight in a marquee match-up that will determine who goes on to the Sweet 16 the Cincinnati Bearcats will tip off against Florida State at 9:40 PM ET on TBS. The Cincinnati vs FSU Odds have the 3rd seeded Florida State Seminoles (25-9 SU 18-14 ATS) shaded as bucket and a half favorites over a 6th seeded Cincinnati Bearcats (25-10 SU 16-13 ATS) team that has not been to the Sweet 16 since 2001. Below is a closer look with a 2012 March Madness Picks play against the sports odds.

NCAA Basketball Picks Analysis: Most 2012 March Madness picks experts have the FSU headed to the Sweet 16 but after a close scrape against 14th seeded St. Bonaventure eyebrows have been raised. While the close win over St. Bonaventure is concerning, it could actually be a good thing when it comes to betting the Sports Odds. The Seminoles were the media friendly “public” squad before that game but now that a little luster has been taken off the Seminoles they are being given short sports odds as the favorites over Bearcats team that is not nearly as deep. The Cincinnati vs FSU Odds Total is at 126.5 points.

Cincinnati owns some eye catching scorers but FSU is deeper and owns a better front court. An ATS nugget that goes against the Bearcats is a dismal 63.7% free throw percentage. FSU shoots at 70.7% clip from the line and have a center in Bernard James that will be a match-up nightmare. Make a 1 UNIT ($100 to win $90) play laying the -2.5 sports odds on FSU to cover.
